I was fine with both signings when they happened. Butler's doesn't look great now, but its a new season. I'm hoping for better from him this season. There is no way to be happy or upset with Crawford yet. We've had one scrimmage. We have to keep CP3, we didn't and don't have the luxury of trying to build for the future. If CP3 signs a max extension like we all think he will, we wouldn't cap space.

Glad to hear that from LAC fans. I'm thinking too much maybe. But I can't help it. CP3 and D.Rose are the two top PG in the league, and I think both of them are facing the same obstacle. Lakers is hording talent, like Miami did in the east. Though you guys got "A" player in Blake(with CP3 A+), I still think LAC is missing another player to put them on top of the west. Same faith with my Bulls team. Another player to surpass Maimi.

I'm hoping you guys will get that extra scoring from Jamal Crawford. Though I would love to see Harden or AI in LAC uniform, to give the Lakers a run for their money.

It won't surprise me to see Odom traded if he struggles. I have no clue who would be available but his expiring could bring another piece or 2. This was our last season for Free Agency. We are MLE team for here on out...assuming we re-sign CP3. We may only have the Mini MLE if we dare I say...go into the luxury tax.

We need another 7 footer. I'm just not comfortable having only Turiaf and Hollins as backups going forward. Birdman would be a good pick up but comes with heavy baggage. Antonio McDyess would be a perfect here. Kenyon Martin IS NOT coming back.

Im nit-picking but......I'm a little weary of the clippers interior and perimeter D (specifically at SG and Center, Willie Green got torched by Foye 2 games in a row and the Clippers had no answer for Jefferson). Kenyon Martin or T-Will would help, but I understand why the clippers wouldn't want to mess up the chemistry the team has going right now.

Other than that, 17 in a row?? Clippers have come a long way since the Baron Davis era that wasn't that long ago. Keep it up.

I'm not sure how KMart would effect chemistry. He wouldn't be the worst fit in the world on this team for sure. We aren't lacking much but he would bring a little toughness inside. I actually think DJ, Blake and Turiaf are all pretty tough. Odom isn't exactly soft either. Barnes is obviously a better "tough" guy for this team than KMart, but if KMart wouldn't negatively effective chemistry I'd be fine adding him.
